Men's Volleyball Suffers 3-0 Loss to MIT

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - The Harvard men's volleyball
team dropped its sixth match of the season, falling to MIT, 3-0
(31-29, 30-28, 30-19), Wednesday at duPont Athletic Center. Harvard
now stands at 0-6 on the season while MIT improves to 12-4.

The Crimson fought back from an early deficit to tie the score
at 29-29 in the first set, but two quick MIT points gave the hosts
the win in the opening frame. The Crimson remained close through
the second game but tough serving by the Engineers down the stretch
helped the hosts to a 30-28 final in the second stanza.

Senior Erik Kuld led the Crimson with 16 kills and classmate Gil
Weintraub chipped in with 10 kills and 12 assists. Freshman Rob
Lothman handed out 26 assists and sophomore Nikola Ivica recorded
four blocks in the loss. Matt Hohenberger led the Engineers with 13
kills and David Thomas and Mike Demyttenaere each pitched in eight
in the win.

Harvard is back in action Feb. 25 as it takes on UC Sanata
Barabara. First serve is slated for 7 p.m.
